All the holes in the front bolt right up the stock touring/R1 lip holes. You will need to drill out 2 new holes, 1 on each side on the end of the lip. Should only take 30-60min from beginning to end.


Simple mod that makes a huge differance to the car IMO. Especially for the FD Tourings with that lame lip. Plus it's cheaper than a R1 lip.

I'm not a fan of the painted lip. i think the dark contrast gives it a more subtle and functional look.
